 * What has been your favorite activity, assignment, piece of literature, etc. that we did the first marking period?**

My favorite activity in the first marking period was the modern day proposal assigned after reading the Canterbury Tales by Chaucer. It was my favorite because it allowed us the most freedom to expand on the general outline of how to write the proposal. We were able to use more of our own ideas instead of trying to prove something about some written work or structured outline. If I were to improve it, I would simply suggest that the proposal essay be lengthened and students be allowed more time to expand on current ideas.
